用Annexin法定量分析淋巴瘤细胞凋亡与坏死

目前，检测细胞凋亡的方法逐渐增多和完善。现介绍一种Ａｎｎｅｘｉｎ法：基于早期凋亡细胞因细胞膜的磷脂对称性改变而使磷脂酰丝氨酸（ＰＳ）暴露于细胞膜外，ＰＳ可特异结合标记有异硫氰酸荧光素（ＦＩＴＣ）的连接素Ｖ（ＡｎｎｅｘｉｎＶ），但细胞仍维持其细胞膜的完...

Annexin V/PI法流式细胞术检测细胞凋亡的影响因素

[目的]探讨消化液、细胞数量及试剂温度对Annexin V/PI法流式细胞术检测细胞凋亡率的影响。[方法]细胞经Accutase或无EDTA胰酶消化后比较检测结果;含有0.5×10^(5)、1×10^(5)、2×10^(5)细胞的样本按照说明书推荐(默认含有1×10^(5)细胞)加入试剂后,比较检测结果;细胞加入室温或4℃试剂后比较检测结果。以上比较均用未处理细胞和秋水仙素处理细胞分别进行。[结果]对于未处理细胞而言,与无EDTA胰酶相比,Accutase能显著减少凋亡率(2.70%vs 18.05%);而经药物处理的细胞,Accutase组凋亡率也有一定程度减少(22.32%vs 26.50%),但差异没有未处理细胞大。未处理细胞随着细胞数量的增加,PI信号并未发生明显改变,Annexin V-FITC信号与细胞数量成反比,统一十字门分析的凋亡率分别是:2.46%、1.85%、1.35%。对于药物处理的细胞差异尤其明显,统一十字门分析的凋亡率分别是:28.83%、21.27%、15.59%,因此不能用统一的十字门分析。加入4℃试剂的未处理细胞的凋亡率明显高于加入室温试剂的细胞的凋亡率(3.77%vs 8.13%),而对于药物处理的细胞,两者基本无差别(22.94%vs 22.18%)。[结论]用Annexin V/PI法流式细胞术检测细胞凋亡率时,使用Accutase消化液;样本严格计数,使细胞数符合说明书要求;使用室温试剂。

Dynamic changes and surveillance function of prion protein expression in gastric cancer drug resistance

AIM:To explore the dynamic changes of prion protein (PrPc) in the process of gastric cancer drug resistance and the role of PrPc expression in the prognosis of gastric cancer patients receiving chemotherapy.METHODS:A series of gastric cancer cell lines resistant to different concentrations of adriamycin was established,and the expression of PrPc,Bcl-2 and Bax was detected in these cells.Apoptosis was determined using Annexin V staining.Western blotting and immunohisto-chemistry were performed to detect the expression of PrPc in patients receiving chemotherapy and to explore the role of PrPc expression in predicting the chemosensitivity and the outcome of gastric cancer patients receiving chemotherapy.Follow-up was performed for 2 years.RESULTS:PrPc expression was increased with the increase in drug resistance.Bcl-2,together with PrPc,increased the level of anti-apoptosis of cancer cells.Increased PrPc expression predicted the enhanced level of anti-apoptosis and resistance to anticancer drugs.PrPc expression could be used as a marker for predicting the efficacy of chemotherapy and the prognosis of gastric cancer.Increased PrPc expression predicted both poor chemosensitivity and a low 2-year survival rate.Contrarily,low PrPc expression predicted favorable chemosensitivity and a relatively high 2-year survival rate.CONCLUSION:PrPc expression is associated with histological types and differentiation of gastric cancer cells;The PrPc expression level might be a valuable marker in predicting the efficacy of chemotherapy and the prognosis of gastric cancer patients receiving chemotherapy.

MicroRNA-15a/b are up-regulated in response to myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury

Objective Several studies have indicated that miR-15a,miR-15b and miR-16 may be the important regulators of apoptosis.Since attenuate apoptosis could protect myocardium and reduce infarction size,the present study was aimed to find out whether these miRNAs participate in regulating myocardial ischemia reperfusion （I/R） injury.Methods Apoptosis in mice hearts subjected to I/R was detected by TUNEL assay in vivo,while flow cytometry analysis followed by Annexin V/PI double stain in vitro was used to detect apoptosis in cultured cardiomyocytes which were subjected to hypoxia/reoxygenation （H/R）.Taqman real-time quantitative PCR was used to confirm whether miR-15a/15b/16 were involved in the regulation of cardiac I/R and H/R.Results Compared to those of the controls,I/R or H/R induced apoptosis of cardiomyocytes was significantly iucreased both in vivo （24.4％ ± 9.4％ vs.2.2％ ± 1.9％,P ＜ 0.01,n =5） and in vitro （14.12％ ±0.92％ vs.2.22％ ± 0.08％）.The expression of miR-15a and miR-15b,but not miR-16,was increased in the mice I/R model,and the results were consistent in the H/R model.Conclusions Our data indicate miR-15 and miR-15b are up-regulated in response to cardiac I/R injury,therefore,down-regulation of miR- 15a/b may be a promising strategy to reduce myocardial apoptosis induced by cardiac I/R injury.
